We're launching a new building and school name in 2027

Learn about our modernizationThe highest-scoring elementary school in Washington, DC.
Brent earned an accountability score of 89.4 on the District's 2024-25 school report card — higher than every other elementary school in DC, public or charter. Most of that score comes from growth: how far our students travel in a year, not just where they started.
Every gift, every size, makes a difference.
Brent PTA fundraisers provide an additional $850 of planned support per student beyond the school's public funding. The 2026–27 PTA budget helps make possible physical activity programs, classroom and curricular resources, field trips, professional development, and community events — the experiences and supports students encounter throughout the year. Every fundraiser helps turn that plan into reality.

Brent Annual Fund
While the PTA focuses on our 3 major fundraisers per year (Holiday Sale, Annual Fund, & Gala/Auction), and the Annual Fund is scheduled for February 2027, we welcome donations all year long to help consistently support our students and community.
